2 Alif Ailaan Midterm Report Card for Members of the Provincial Assembly - Balochistan May 11, 2013 to November 11, 2015 On November 11, 2015, Pakistan s four provincial assemblies and the National Assembly reached the midterm mark in their tenure. The Alif Ailaan campaign has tried to gauge every MNA and MPA through the performance of their respective constituencies since the 2013 elections against four indicators for education and awarded s in each category, as well as an overall to each MNA, each MPA, and the assemblies. The s do not reflect the state of education in a given constituency, but rather the demonstrable change in each constituency since the 2013 election. This document contains the Alif Ailaan Midterm Report Card for MPAs of the Balochistan Assembly. What the MPAs are d on? The four indicators on which MPAs have been d on are: a) The state of school facilities (with the highest s for those constituencies that made the most progress in the provision of boundary walls, electricity, drinking water and toilet facilities since the 2013 election) b) The state of gender parity (the ratio of boys to girls or girls to boys with the highest s for those constituencies that have shown the greatest movement towards gender parity since the 2013 election) c) The student to teacher ratio (with the highest s for those constituencies with the largest improvement in student teacher ratio since 2013 where low student to teacher ratios are considered better) d) The retention rate between class IV and class II (with the highest s awarded to those constituencies with the highest improvement in the retention rate since 2013) Data limitations The compilation of the report card of the s is not based on ideal indicators, but rather on indicators made from official government data on education that was available, as well as being representative of a desirable outcome in education. The four indicators were thus chosen to reflect the four key areas where government actions can produce direct and immediate results, namely: school building infrastructure, equal provision of education to girls and boys, the provision of sufficient teachers to meet student numbers, and the ability of the system to retain students within the primary level. The s do not reflect the state of education in a given constituency, but rather the demonstrable change in each constituency since the 2013 election. Finally, the most recent available official government data that can be reported by constituency is from the end of 2014 therefore the s will not reflect any changes to the education landscape during the current calendar year. 2

3 How to read an MPA s s Each MPA has scored s on school facilities, gender parity, student to teacher ratio and retention. The s represent the quantum shift made in the given constituency for all public sector schools since the 2013 election. The allocation of s has been standardised to a normal distribution. The highest possible is A+ and the lowest is E. A low does not necessarily mean that a given constituency is very badly placed and a high does not necessarily mean that a given constituency is doing very well. Instead, s reflect the level of progress made within a given constituency. What a low does however show, is that a greater effort by a given MPA may have led to a better, whereas a high shows that measurable improvement was shown in a given MPA s constituency. Highlights of the Midterm Report Card for MPAs of the Balochistan Assembly The report card for the Provincial Assembly Balochistan shows that across the entire population of 51 elected MPAs, only three MPAs can lay claim to constituencies where there is evidence of real overall progress since the 2013 general election. Regional divides continue to feature prominently in the Balochistan education landscape, with most of the constituencies from southern Balochistan featuring prominently among the worst performing constituencies, suggesting continued widespread neglect in this region. Nushki, Kharan, Washuk have the only constituencies with overall A s. All three of Killa Abdullah s constituencies receive a B. The Chief Minister Dr. Abdul Malik Baloch s constituency scores an overall B. Nasirabad has the worst performing constituencies overall with 1 C and 1 D. The overall for the Provincial Assembly of Balochistan is a B. School facilities: Constituencies from Nushki, Kharan, Washuk, Kech and Kachhi have shown the most improvement in terms of school facilities. Nasirabad and Panjgur have performed worst in amenities improvements with both constituencies in each district scoring D s. All six of Quetta s constituencies received three Bs and three Cs, respectively. None of Jafferabad s three constituencies scored a above C, while both of Lasbela s two constituencies received C s. The majority of constituencies appear not to have improved in terms of facilities, with 55% of constituencies receiving a C or D. Retention rates: In terms of student retention, PB-23 Kohlu is the most improved constituency with the only A+. PB-14 Loralai, PB-21 Sibi, and PB-29 Nasirabad are the worst performers in terms of student retention, with E s. Two out of three constituencies in Pishin (PB-9 and PB-10) have received A s in student retention. The chief minister s constituency (PB-48) received a C. 51% of constituencies in Balochistan have scored a B or above in student retention, suggesting only slight improvement overall in the province. Gender parity: The most improvement in gender-parity in Balochistan has been shown in two constituencies; PB-5 Quetta-V, and PB-27 Jaffarabad-III. The worst performing constituencies were Moulvi Muazullah Musakhail s (PB-15 Musakhail), and Muhammad Khan Lehri s (PB-29 Nasirabad-II). Both of Kachhi s two constituencies scored a D while none of Quetta s six 3

4 constituencies receive a below B. All of Killa Abdullah s 3 constituencies received B s. The Advisor to CM on Finance Mir Khalid Langau s constituency (PB-36 Kallat-I) scores a D. There is a slight improvement across the province on parity between the genders, with 59% of MPA constituencies in Balochistan scoring a B or above. Student-teacher ratio: The spread of constituency performance in terms of student/teacher ratio is relatively equally distributed across the north and south. Constituencies from Killa Abdullah, Loralai, Jhal Magsi, Chagai, Kharan and Washuk appear to have made the greatest movement toward improved student teacher ratios. Some constituencies from the southern districts appear to have deteriorated considerably than others in terms of student/teacher ratio, with constituencies from Dera Bugti, Jafferabad, Nasirabad, Kech, Kohlu and Sibi receiving D or E s. All of Killa Abdullah s three constituencies receive a B or above, while all three constituencies of Jafferabad s score a C or below. All of Khuzdar s three constituencies receive a B. There appears to be scant improvement in the province overall, with over 53% of constituencies scoring a C or below. Homework for MPAs who want to improve Every MPA in the province is performing below par. Even recipients of A s would not send their own children to a government school. The s here are being awarded to the state of government schools. This report card clearly shows that there is not only a lot of room for improvement in the state of government schools overall, but a lot of room for improvement in the effort that MPAs invest in improving education. Further, MPAs can help improve education through data collection, openness and reporting. Acquiring, processing, cleaning and presenting the data for this exercise is an incredibly resource-intensive exercise that government should be doing itself. Government also must begin to produce data faster, and across a richer array of variables particularly data on learning outcomes and education quality. All MPAs can easily pad their s by insisting on timely and effective improvements in school facility provision, on which government has a rich and detailed database. The recent focus on the roll-out of a much-improved data-regime by the Balochistan government is a step in the right direction. The MPAs need to make sure that the new data-regime provides accurate and timely information not only on the basis of administrative and geographical boundaries, but along political ones as well. MPAs can also affect better student to teacher ratios by insisting on rational allocations of teachers, rather than postings and transfers that suit their patronage of political actors in their constituencies. Encouraging girls enrolment and ensuring that practices like corporal punishment are prevented will help MPAs improve gender parity and better retention rates. The ultimate report card for MPAs will be delivered in 2018 when the time for re-election comes around. Alif Ailaan hopes to ensure that when it does, voters across the country will be 4

5 strict and demanding examiners. Much stricter, than the rigorous methodology used to develop this midterm report card! 5
